Relighting A Smoking Candle In Super Slow Motion

Most people don’t realize that when a candle is burning it’s the wax that is supplying the fuel for the flame. That’s why when you blow out a candle you can relight it just by lighting the smoke trail. The Slow Mo Guys wanted to examine this phenomenon further, so they relit a smoking candle under the lens of their super slow motion camera. The results are glorious.
